Princes William and Harry were cut from ‘The Last Jedi’ – CNET

Hollywood is a harsh place where even royals can have their movie scenes left on the cutting-room floor.

“Last Jedi” star John Boyega revealed back in November that British princes William and Harry had filmed a scene for the film. The royals were hidden behind Stormtrooper uniforms, and appeared guarding Boyega’s Finn in an elevator along with two other famous Stormtroopers — actor Tom Hardy and Gary Barlow from British pop group Take That.

But now that the film’s been out for two months, it’s clear the princes’ scene didn’t make the movie.

Boyega actually confirmed the royal cameo was cut before the film even came out in December, but the way he delivered the news made some think he was kidding. (Boyega said he delivered the news to the princes, and William joked back that “I probably just need to work more on (my acting) skills.”)
